I like getting all the new features on my G1. I have noticed a lot more street views that were added to the 1.6 and bus routes for people walking. This is Google working hard on giving Android a better experence. The only thing I hate is the wait. I would like to see a garmin talk direction navagator app get into this update. That would be sweet.

when I go to google maps it does not say google map data. It still says Tele Atlas.

Location aware advertising on GPS units would be worth a fortune. Looking for a gas station? Esso could pay to show up first. Fast Food? Burger King could pay to show up before McD’s and steal some customers.

That’s a business model Google wouldn’t, and wont ignore. Great article.

This would be huge for VZW. Maybe they finally started thinking long term instead of trying to scam people into taking VZ Nav only to have that customer cancel the service within 3 months.
BTW I love your blog!

Interesting that Verizon seems to be going with this instead of their own separate service that they try to push. (Perhaps take-up on it is poor.)
